But it doesn't know they're in an index field when it's doing the parsing for ':' or '!'. It might be possible to change this so that the field name is fully parsed first, but I'm not sure the benefit would justify the effort. What's your use case where you need this feature? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12014> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
